Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed [is] not grievous, but for you [it is] safe.
ⲁ̅ⲧⲟ ⲗⲟⲓⲡⲟⲛ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲣⲁϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϭⲛⲁⲩ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉ.
2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil-workers, beware of the concision.
ⲃ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲟⲩϩⲱⲣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲣⲅⲁⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϣⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲃⲓ.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
ⲅ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲉⲃⲓ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲛϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⳿ϩⲑⲏⲛ ⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲁⲛ.
4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath reason to trust in the flesh, I more:
ⲇ̅ⲕⲉⲡⲉⲣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲟⲛ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲭⲁ⳿ϩⲑⲏϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ.
5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, [of] the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; with respect to the law, a Pharisee;
ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲉⲃⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲙⲁϩⲏ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲅⲉⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥ̅ⲗ̅ ⳿ⲧⲫⲩⲗⲏ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲛⲓ⳿ⲁⲙⲓⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ.
6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; with respect to the righteousness which is by the law, blameless.
ⲋ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲟⲩⲭⲟϩ ⲁⲓϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲓϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲓⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲧⲁⲣⲓⲕⲓ.
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
ⲍ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲏ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛϩⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲁⲓⲟⲡⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲥⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
8 Yes doubtless, and I count all things [to be] loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them [to be] dung, that I may win Christ,
ⲏ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲉⲛⲟⲩⲛⲅⲉ ϯⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏ ⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛⲟⲥⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲁ⳪ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓϯⲟⲥⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛⲗⲉⲃϣ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁϫⲉⲙϩⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
9 And be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith:
ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϫⲉⲙⲧ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲉⲥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲧ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ.
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death;
ⲓ̅ⲉⲑⲣⲓⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ⲙⲕⲁϩ ⲉⲓϣⲓⲃϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ.
11 If by any means I may attain to the resurrection of the dead.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁϯⲙⲁϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ.
12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I pursue, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended by Christ Jesus.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲭ ⲟⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲓϭⲓ ⲓⲉ ϩⲏⲇⲏ ⲁⲓϫⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϯϭⲟϫⲓ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁϩⲟ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but [this] one thing [I do], forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forward to those things which are before,
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲱ ⲁⲓⲧⲁϩⲟ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⲙⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲱⲃϣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲉⲓⲥⲱⲟⲩⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲉⲛⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ.
14 I press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲙⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲓϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲡⲓⲃⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲑⲱϩⲉⲙ ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye are otherwise minded, God will reveal even this to you.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧϫⲏⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲕⲉϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲛⲕⲉⲣⲏϯ ⲡⲁⲓⲭⲉⲧ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲫϯ ϭⲱⲣⲡϥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
16 Nevertheless, to what we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲡⲗⲏⲛ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲛⲫⲟϩ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲛϯⲙⲁϯ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them who walk so as ye have us for an example.

18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, [that they are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲛ ⲉ⳿ⲓⲣⲓⲙⲓ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲓϫⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
19 Whose end [is] destruction, whose God [is their] belly, and [whose] glory [is] in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲧⲟⲩϧⲁ⳿ⲉ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲡⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲟⲩⲛⲉϫⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲟⲩⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲓⲡⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲑⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ:

21 Who will change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like to his glorious body, according to the working by which he is able even to subdue all things to himself.
